Chapter 13

Today was the first day to has rained since I've been in New York and I must admit that I haven't missed the rain at all. Bruce came to my apartment to carry me upstairs after Pepper and Tasha helped me shower and get into a fitted green maxi dress. Bruce was careful to try and not hurt my leg when he picked me up and he told me that my dad was leaving as soon as he eats breakfast and he wanted to wait on me before he ate breakfast. By this time we were upstairs and I told Bruce that I could eat in the dinning room with everyone else so he carried me in there and sat me at the table and pulled another chair for me to put my leg up on and he left and said he would be back in a few. I noticed that no one was in the dinning room yet and any other time I am usually the last one to come to breakfast. My dad walked in and said "Bells you know I hate that I'm leaving you right now especially with a broken ankle but I know you are in good hands here with your Uncle Tony and the team and I know Steve will take good care of you as well. Bella I see that you are really starting to like him and I just wanted to tell you that it is ok to move on and love again so don't fight whatever feelings you have for him because you never know he could be the one for you kid. Just promise me that if y'all start to get to a place in your relationship if y'all start to get involved physically then please use protection because I am to young to be a grandpa. I mean can you imagine me a grandfather rocking a baby on my knee before I've lived out the rest of my bachelor days. I'm just kidding Bella but just promise me y'all will be safe and use protection." "Dad I promise but I don't think you will have to worry about that for a while and I don't think I will have sex before I am married anyways. Just so you know I am still a virgin." I think that this pleased my dad because he had a big smile on his face after I told him that. Not to much longer the rest of the team came in and we all ate breakfast. Steve carried me into the living room after we were finished and my dad came and gave me a hug and told me "to be careful and try not to fall on anything else." I told him "that I would do my best but I wasn't making any problems." He gave me a kiss on the forehead and told the team to take care of me and with that he was gone.

Since none of the team had anything to do they decided to try out a few battle plans and I wanted to watch I thought this should be good since I've never seen any of them in action. I sat and talked to Bruce about some of my school work since I decided to get home schooled and since everyone else had to change he was the only one that didn't have to change of course. He asked was I sure I wanted to see them in action and he said "Bella I become a different person when I'm like that I can remember bits and pieces but not everything. I want hurt you but I just don't want you to look at me differently or be scared of me. Do you understand what I am saying?" I told him that it would be fine and I had no fear that he would hurt me, lets be honest I've seen worse. So Steve came back and told us the rest of the team were already heading downstairs so we went to the basement a part of the building that I didn't even know existed and it was a huge open space and I later learned that uncle Tony had created it to resemble any type of battle zone that they wanted to try out. Steve sat me on a bench that was in the corner out of the way and I must admit it was nice to see him in his suit in person. It was nice watching them in action I must admit it was different seeing them in their zone. Clint was an ace at hitting targets with his arrows, he didn't have to focus on his target he could glance and hit it with no problem. Tasha I must admit was great at handling a gun and she was jumping and ducking and swinging from place to place. Bruce was able to tear things apart and I must admit he was very different from the calm scientist that I usually worked with. It was weird watching uncle Tony fly all over the place and watch bright bolts of light shoot out of his chest. I couldn't help but laugh at Thor because he was having so much fun with his hammer and I don't know where the lighting was coming from but he was electrocuting things left and right and laughing the entire time. However watching Steve was completely different from watching Thor because he mind was in a whole different place from everyone else's he is what true leaders are made of he was directing everyone and telling them where to go and his shield came in handy it was amazing how Tasha could come out of nowhere and he would have his shield ready and she would use the shield as a trampoline and sometimes he would use it to block different attacks. I loved watching them work together and I knew now that on Steve's next mission I wouldn't have to be as worried about him as I was the last time. After about 2 hours of watching them change Jarvis came over the speakers and everything disappeared and he said that I had visitors upstairs in the family room so Steve picked me up and I noticed that everyone decided to come and by this time Bruce was back to his normal self. When we got upstairs I was shocked to see all of the Cullen's looking back at us especially when they saw me in Steve's arms and how we were smiling at each other. Tony looked to me and asked me "Bella do you know these people?" I looked at him and the rest of the team and said "yes they are the Cullen's."

When I said that I noticed that the team all went from smiling to being pissed within an amount of 2 seconds. Tony looked at them and said "y'all need to leave now." Carlisle looked at Tony and the rest of the team and said "we don't mean to come a stir up any problems we just wanted to see Bella we know we hurt her and we just want to make it right because we know we were wrong to just leave her without telling her bye or trying to stay in touch with her. Bella do you think we could talk to you and if you would feel comfortable with your family staying with you that's fine with us." Before I could respond Steve looked at him and said "I don't plan to leave her alone with you and your son is lucky she is not pressing charges on him so we can sit but if you say one thing to upset her then you will have to deal with me got it. And by the way which one of you is Edward?" Edward stepped forward and looked straight at Steve and said "I know I was wrong for taking Bella against her will but I would never do anything to hurt her she knows that and I am not giving up on her just so you know. I thought Steve was going to drop me to try and go after Edward because he started shaking really bad and I looked up at him and he was laughing like someone had just told a joke and he said "listen kid you had your chance and you hurt Bella and guess what you lost a right to try and fight for her so just do us both a favor and bow out gracefully." Edward looked a little pissed and just said "I'm sorry but I just can't do that." By this time Bruce looked and said why don't we all just sit down and talk that way Bella can get comfortable, everyone was fine with this so they all sat down and Steve placed me on my sofa and put my legs up on him. After we sat down Emmett was the one to break the ice he looked to me and said "so sis what happened this time, an invisible fairy tripped you?" I laughed and said "no I got a new one for you, I fell walking up steps." At this he roared with laughter and Carlisle and Esme smiled and I could feel the tension easing a little and knew that Jasper picked that moment to try and lighten the mood, I glanced at him and smiled. I then made introductions and I told the Cullen's that they had the floor to talk.

Jasper apologized for the accident that happened at my birthday party and I told him that I had been forgiven him about it and that it was forgotten and there was nothing to apologize for he smiled and said thank you. Rosalie went next and it surprised me that she was sorry for not being nice to me and that she would like to move on from it and hoped that we could be friends in the future. I told her it was all good and I didn't have any problems with that. Alice apologized next "Bella I know you looked to me like a sister and I felt and still feel the same way about you and I am so sorry that I didn't stay in contact with you but I really did think it would be for the best. I know now that it wasn't and I thought that if I stayed in contact with you that you would never be able to move on but know I know I was wrong and you really needed me and I wasn't there for you like a sister should be. Do you think you can ever forgive me and the biggest mistake I have ever made in my life." I thought about it for a second and Alice was starting to get real nervous and I smiled at her and said "of course I forgive you. You know I can't stay mad at you Alice." She smiled and bounced over to me and gave me a huge hug and said "Bella you looked really nice I love the outfit you are wearing it's so cute." Then she whispered in my ear so no one else could hear except maybe the vampires but I knew Edward was reading her mind and he just sat there stiffed with a hurt look on his face as Alice said "Bella I know you will be really happy with Steve and I want that for you especially with those beautiful babies you will have with him. Just make sure I am their godmother ok." I smiled at her and nodded as she went back to sit beside Jasper. Esme looked to me and smiled and said "Bella I am so very sorry that me and my family caused you so much hurt and pain, and I just want to let you know that I still think of you as my daughter and I just hope that you can find it in your heart to forgive me. I'm not saying all this because I think you should take Edward back in fact I think the complete opposite because none of us agreed with him about his decision to just leave you with no explanation but we all thought it would be easier for you. If I could do it all over again I would and for that I'm sorry." I looked at her and smiled and said "I can forgive all of y'all because I know it came down to me or Edward and y'all just did what anyone would do and that is to choose family over anyone else so I really don't need to hear anymore apologies especial from you Carlisle. I really appreciate the fact that all of y'all was willing come this far to apologize to me its all in the past." They all smiled and said thank you. Tony on the other hand was not letting it go so easily.

He looked to them and said "so that's it y'all just come back in my niece's life and so I'm sorry for hurting you and think everything will be ok. So let me ask you what do you think will happen now that she has forgiven y'all and y'all stick around or stay in touch with her for a little while and then Eddy boy realizes that he has no chance in hell of ever getting back with my niece that y'all once again feel that Bella is no longer important enough for y'all to be concerned about and just disappear out of her life again and with no contact once again what is she supposed to do then. We will be the ones left picking up the pieces to her and we will be trying to keep her together. You guys don't get it do you? She was broken when y'all left her and she was still broken when she got here but now she is smiling more and she has finally moved on with her life and I'm not just going to let y'all come in here and break her again because before y'all get a chance to do that I will kill every last one of you got it. So I want to hear what you will do then?" Carlisle looked at Tony and then the rest of the team and said "I understand your concerns and I can assure you that we would never do that to Bella a second time we truly regret doing it the first time and I don't make mistakes twice and neither does my family. If Bella finds it in her heart to accepts or apology can y'all at least gives us the chance to make it up to her. We have a townhouse not to far from here in the Upper East Side and we've decided to move closer to Bella so that she can see that we are really sorry. All of you are more then welcome to come visits us at any time and there is not as much room in it that you have here but its big enough to host guest. I even have a job at the Presbyterian Morgan Stanley Children's Hospital. Tony do you think this is something that you guys can live with and accept?" "Ok just as long as you can keep your son away from my niece because he kidnapped her and he will not do it a second time and he will not hurt her again. One toe out of line and I will happily hand him over to Bruce and Thor who would willing rip him into pieces got it." Bruce and Thor just looked at Edward and smiled and Clint finally spoke up and said he would be more then happy to help. Carlisle looked at me and asked me was I ok with everything and I told him yes. He asked me am I at least happy and I said very happy, Edward looked sad with what I said but he would have to live with it he made his choice and so have I. I want and choose Steve. I looked at my old family and smiled and then I looked at my new family and smiled. I hoped everything worked for the best and I prayed that they would be able to get along or at least to pretend to for my sake. I hoped that everyone could put their differences aside.

They didn't have to be best friends but I at least hoped that both of my families could get along.

So guys be sure to let me know what you guys think. I hope you enjoyed it and we will see how the Cullen's get along with the avengers in the coming chapters.

Do you guys like the fact that the Cullen's will be around for a while.
